Pantera Garbatella

Tucked away in Rome’s charming Garbatella neighborhood, Pantera is the latest venture from the talented brothers who brought you Trecca—widely considered one of the best spots in the city. This tiny pizza shop has quickly become a local favorite, drawing crowds who line up for what might be some of the finest pizza al taglio you’ll find in Rome.

What sets Pantera apart is their extraordinary crust. Each slice delivers a satisfyingly crispy bite infused with rich olive oil, creating a foundation that elevates every topping. The marinara showcases this perfectly—a beautiful smear of naturally sweet tomato sauce finished with generous handfuls of fresh parsley. Their pizza con patate is equally impressive, piled high with paper-thin, rosemary-kissed roasted potatoes that practically melt in your mouth.

Don’t overlook the crostino, either—a heavenly combination of quality prosciutto and bubbling broiled mozzarella. The intimate shop doesn’t offer much seating inside, but there’s a bench outside that’s become the unofficial gathering spot for regulars. Grab your slices, find a spot, and be prepared to head back in for another round.

For anyone seeking authentic Roman pizza without the tourist-trap prices, Pantera delivers exactly what you’re looking for. It’s the kind of place that makes you feel like a local from the first bite—casual, delicious, and entirely unpretentious.
